Moments Between Stillness
After becoming stranded in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic, Ilan Derech turned to the one language he knew best: photography. Each day, he wandered through unfamiliar streets, capturing fragments of a world that felt both distant and immediate. At night, he returned to his hostel to sift through the images, using them as a way to process and understand a culture, its signs, and its rhythms.
From this practice grew a new form. Inspired by the 17-syllable, three-line structure of haiku, Derech reimagined it as three visual fragments, each lasting 17 seconds. These triptychs became moving poems, meditations on time and perception.
間
Moments Between Stillness | 静けさの狭間 is a contemplative body of work shaped by the Japanese concept of ma (間), the space between things. Not an emptiness, but a presence: the pause between sounds, the stillness between movements. Ma offers a quiet rhythm, inviting us to slow down, to notice the subtle and the unseen.
In Moments Between Stillness, Ilan Derech captures the fleeting intervals we often overlook. The work becomes an invitation to reflect, not just on what we see, but on how we see. What deserves our attention? And what do we allow to drift past, unnoticed?

Heart of Water | 水の心
Collected by: Anonymous
Last Sold: 13.0 Ξ
In the heart of the pond, a fan stirs the quiet air, gentle as a whisper. Lotus blooms without sound, while koi drift like thoughts, fluid, ever-changing, beneath the surface of time. The water reflects all yet it holds no judgment, only the stillness of what lies within.

Snow whispers softly on the shrine, blanketing the world in quiet grace. Every flake a gentle prayer, falling slow, embracing space. Beneath the frozen sky, time folds into stillness deep. Here, the heart speaks softly, in silence, prayers keep.

Collected by: Anonymous
Last Sold: 12.0 Ξ
Snow falls gently on the temple, a silent prayer rising with the frost. In the quiet, everything is still, the world wrapped in white, as if time itself has paused. Here, in this sacred silence, the snow and prayer blend together, each flake a prayer, each breath a quiet blessing.

Collected by: Anonymous
Last Sold: 11.5 Ξ
A swan glides through the blue, followed by others in quiet formation. Their feathers barely stir the lake’s surface. Mount Fuji stands tall above, its reflection perfectly mirrored below, a diamond of snow and shadow cut into still water.

Biography
Biography

Ilan Derech is a multidisciplinary artist who transforms the quiet rhythms of everyday life into visual poetry. Drawing inspiration from the structure of haiku, his work distills fleeting moments into three-panel compositions, each lasting 17 seconds, echoing the brevity and depth of the traditional Japanese form. Through this minimalist approach, Derech invites viewers to slow down and rediscover the subtle beauty hidden in plain sight, from the rainy alleys of Tokyo to the soft glow of a Kyoto temple.
Rooted in travel and street photography, his practice blends seamlessly into the environments he captures. Favoring candid, unposed scenes, Derech creates meditative works that encourage reflection and mindfulness. Each piece offers a quiet space to pause, transforming the ordinary into something quietly profound. His work reflects a deep reverence for the poetry of daily life, guided by a timeless and contemplative aesthetic.
